| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing left, rendered in fine Classical style with naturalistically detailed hair swept back in layered waves. The portrait is truncated at the neck and positioned centrally within the flan, surrounded by a beaded border. The Latin legend CAESAR to the left and AVGVSTVS to the right frames the imperial effigy in the field. The engraving reflects the idealized yet individualized portraiture characteristic of Augustan coinage. |
